New EP by Juan Antonio Nieto aka Pangea on Experimedia.Most of the sounds that form Divisions of Space are part of the conversation that different percussive timbres (metal, plastic, wood) keep each other moving in constant motion the entire theme. The extreme manipulation of these elements transform the clean percussion in something diferent using chambers slowed in dark, unsettling drones and dramatic subwoofer effects. The Division of Space slight underground melodies endow a strange aerial feeling. At the end of the track, the human voice brings us back to earth. BIO: Pangea is the project of avant-garde music of the spanish musician Juan Antonio Nieto. Pangea experiments with harsh sounds, with them he creates rich textures in shades wrapped in hypnotic atmospheres. "The main idea in my music is about the power of evocative sounds outside the usual elements in most of the musical compositions such as the pace or melody, different timbres are to sustain themselves and will be the relationship between them that the dowry of excitementto work looking at the listener a complicity with the sounds that make up the membership, these sounds harsh, even irritating in themselves, acquire a totally different dimension in combination with each other."

Celebrating the 50th release on JNN Mark Stolk has invited some of the best (netlabel)artists from around the globe to join this massive compilation album.

In total 52 artists joined to create the finest in what is available in experimental music these days. Much of what you hear is unreleased work with the exception of a handful. These tracks have been carefully mastered and put together to present to you a 4 CD epic journey into sound. Together with the artwork the puzzle lies ahead to find out what exactly is ‘normal’.A tip of the veil; … there is no one answer. What one considers normal another may disagree on with totally different standards.

El abismo inclinado is a selection of free improvisations executed during the summer of 2008, using field recordings manipulated into taking them to the extreme limit of pure abstract noise, using sounds clean and clear and far from the usual distortion of this type of music. All items have been recorded directly to two tracks without edits or overdubs.

I would like to mention a quote of Kim Hiorthoy: The older I get, the more I believe in anarchy and the less I believe in ownwrship. If you want to control something set it free.

Abrasive Soul is an album consists of two long themes of abstract music, full of harsh sounds, broken structures and subliminal drones, trated in a manner decidedly narcotic.Second release in the russian netlabel Cinical Archives, the first one Metal Machine Muzak [ca27] out in 2007. Clinical Archives is an independent netlabel for illogical music. All those works are releases for free under Creative Commons Licences.

In the begining 2007 the writer and multimedia artist Kenji Siratori requested collaborations with different musicians from around the world, including Pangea (Juan Antonio Nieto). Was about that these musicians use his words and his voice to, processed, become an instrument in the composition.

When I received the 6 files, I thought his voice was intense enough to use with little modification. In "Vital error" music, voice and words complement each other without annulled, the general atmosphere created in this album is dense, dark and disturbing. The particular intonation Japanese language offers an additional point of beauty and mystery.

XS Records [Portuguese Netlabel] is a netlabel based in Braga, and headed by the musician Tiago Morgado (Necrostilet, uncle bart comes to have breakfas) it was started in the early 2008, and it was a long time idea with the intuit to promote the head own’s work and creating a circuit for creating, promotion and distribution of free music online, with support on creative commons lecenses.
